Very funny! but one interesting side note... about the Manassas /Bull Run issue. It all depends on where/what side you are on. Solders in the Northern Armies referred to most battles by the closest town/city. Southern solders always referred to battles by the closed creek/run/river/etc. so technically they both names are correct. btw I am full of useless facts. Other than that good work.

Being from Virginia, I can hardly escape it. However, I think you have these reversed. The north called it Bull Run, and the south Manassas.
